Recall Details
Concern : SEAT MAY CATCH FIRE
Description : It has been identified that due to an incorrectly sewn-in tension wire strap for the back-rest cover of the front seats there may be contact between the tension wire of the seat and the filaments of the seat heater. The resulting short circuit can lead to fire damage on the front seat covers.
Remedial Action : Recalled vehicles will have the tension wires of the front seats insulated.
Ahh, because I didn't set the time and date on my camera?
Tell me about it, I must of fit hundreds at work in the past few weeks I bought mine last year for my old Polo even though they were the totally wrong size for the car! Luckily they were the exact size for this Polo so haven't had to buy anymore. Cost me £180 for these two though, and that's working in a tyre place
Yup, went out and bought some steelies to put my snow tyres on, sods law it won't snow now But means I can get my alloys refurbed for when I put them back on
